It's a beautiful looking resort with beautiful rooms. Very clean and staff are friendly and polite all around. Pools were clean and have swim up bars. Beach was nice but had seaweed issue one day of our stay. My major issue is when we arrived. After a long flight, waiting in customs, waiting for our ride, this lady named Mar escorted us to our room. She was trying to upsell us on excursions and such. We told her we are tired and hungry and don't want to discuss this rn, but she didn't care - was legit there for AT LEAST 20 min. We didn't get our bags delivered to our room until she called for it...it felt like a time scam. It was an uncomfortable and frustrating experience. After she left we went to get eat. Overall, it was not good. My kids love hot dogs but these did not taste good, nor did the nuggets as they were clearly unseasoned. There is a lack of options, maybe 5 entree and 5 appetizer items per menu. Most of the options were bland and lacked Mexican authenticity we were looking for. Drinks were a bit watered down and lacking creativity. Breakfast at La Veranda was pretty good as there was a wide variety of things to choose from, buffet style. The only restaurant that was good was the Hacienda but it's only for dinner and you need to have a reservation. Lastly, after every meal, they ask for you room card. While this is an all-inclusive resort, they give you a receipt with $0 and a line for tip on. It felt expected by everyone, from bartenders to waiters.

The beach was beautiful I have stayed at other royal properties royal cancun, royal uno, royal haciendas and by far most this royal sands stay was terrible experience for my vacations. Upon arrival I had the proper documents and decal for the handicap area parking and the front door security personnel came out to say I could not park there because he did not see I was using a wheelchair, chaotic I just had surgery on my kneee hard for me to go up down stairs, we had to move the vehicle. Food service to the room was bad 2 hour wait if you are lucky and someone actually picks up. Food showed up cold, no utensils only knife’s in the room cabinet. A burger we ordered on one occasion undercooked blood was all over the bun and plate

We enjoyed our trip very much. I’d like better food options and most of your food is served luke warm. There has to be a better way to keep/serve HOT (temperature) food. Music all the time and more activities at night. Maybe a place for dancing.

Great resort, I had a nice time. The hotel is a bit older style and not as modern, but it is very clean and kept in great condition. The staff everywhere is very friendly and accommodating. The suite room I had was very nice and spacious, I loved the big balcony and the view. The pools are also amazing, very big and spacious, heated water. There's a nice small water park too. The only thing is I wish they had more dining options/restaurants. There was only 1 buffet for lunch, and not really any other "full menu'd" restaurants. The food was decent but could be better. Quality was OK but I wish the selection was better. But overall I still had a fun time here.

it was a nice resort but the food was terrible sometimes the pasta was literally undercooked. the drinks tasted like water or like your drinking sparkling water when it’s suppose to be a mojito. and the taxi prices were insane. the line to check in was ridiculous we waited two hours without any beverage in the heat. the good things were that the staff was nice and helpful, the resort was clean and well put together, my kids loved the pools and the water park they had just built in but beside that everything else sucked.
